Elmvale Maple Syrup Festival

The Elmvale Maple Syrup Festival is a fundraising day which supports needs within the community. All proceeds from this one day event are turned back to our schools, children’s music programs, library support, arena and community hall projects, girl guides and scouts, as well as helping many other projects where other financial sources are not available. Many volunteers and many, many hours of planning and behind the scenes effort have gone into preparing for this day. For over 5 decades, committees have sat and wondered what they could do to make the next Maple Syrup Festival better than the year before.

For many ex-Elmvalites and Georgian Bay Cottagers, the Festival Day develops into a HOME-COMING WEEKEND. What a great time to visit with friends and families as well as have a fun day at the Festival!

 

Browse over 200 vendor booths and warm up in the arena, with refreshments on the upper level. Take the school bus out to Lalonde’s Sugarbush for a tour of his operation. Don’t miss our exciting log-sawing and pancake-eating contests on our main stage, along with a variety of entertainment.

From bird feeders to rock jewelry, hand-forged ironwork to handmade bath products, mouth-watering edible treats to handmade clothing, you are sure to find something to catch your eye or whet your appetite.
